Australia Project - Story: Ernie Dances To The Didgeridoo

This story tells the tale of a boy called Ernie who goes to live in a remote part of Australia where the lifestyle and people are very different to what he is used to.  He has a great time making new friends and learning new things.  The children at UPUERE did, too!  Each time we read the story we would follow up with a game or activity from the pages of the book.

  • Playing Tin-Tin.
  • Making a traditional Australian bread called Damper
  • Face painting
  • Learning the words and actions to a traditional Australian song: Taba Naba
  • Dot painting
  • Listening to Didgeridoo music

Here's a link to the recipe!  DAMPER
